Detailed Description

the structure for the memory configuration for the RTE. Used by the rte_config structure. It is separated out, as for multi-process support, the memory details should be shared across instances

Field Documentation

volatile uint32_t magic

Magic number - Sanity check.

struct rte_memseg memseg[RTE_MAX_MEMSEG]

Physmem descriptors.

struct rte_memzone memzone[RTE_MAX_MEMZONE]

Memzone descriptors.

uint32_t memzone_idx

Index of memzone

rte_rwlock_t mlock

current lock nest order

qlock->mlock (ring/hash/lpm)
mplock->qlock->mlock (mempool) Notice: ALWAYS obtain qlock first if having to obtain both qlock and mlockonly used by memzone LIB for thread-safe.

rte_rwlock_t mplock

only used by mempool LIB for thread-safe.

uint32_t nchannel

Number of channels (0 if unknown).

uint32_t nrank

Number of ranks (0 if unknown).

rte_rwlock_t qlock

used for tailq operation for thread safe.

struct rte_tailq_head tailq_head[RTE_MAX_TAILQ]

Tailqs for objects
